MANILA, Philippines — Months before President Rodrigo Duterte steps down from office, the National Bureau of Investigation will conduct case build-up on “war on drugs” operations that resulted in deaths from July 2016 to June 2020, Justice Secretary Menardo Guevarra said.

 

In his speech before the United Nations Human Rights Council, Guevarra said the Department of Justice-led "war on drugs" review panel is set to endorse 250 cases that involve reported deaths in Central Luzon anti-narcotics operations.

 

Justice Undersecretary Emmeline Aglipay-Villar told reporters that the 250 cases referred to the NBI, an attached agency of the department, is for "case build-up and determination of possible criminal liability."
